The unusually warm spring of 2012 has brought strawberries to market roughly a month earlier than usual. Around the Lowcountry, there are a handful of places where you can pick your own.

Here's a quick list of some of the u-pick locations within driving distance of your home, but if you know of a few others, please email us.

Strawberries are the first crops harvested in the spring and usually the harvest is complete by mid-May.
